  2. Cooking with Leftovers: Adapting Historic Spaces into Food Halls

    Provided below are images from ten (10) of the best examples across the United States where once neglected historic buildings have been adapted and repurposed into amazing food halls and related entertainment venues. Those food halls whose names are shown in bold/italics have been visited by the blog author.

    As can be seen, some truly amazing buildings have been renovated into top notch dining locations. Often, food halls will serve as an incubator for talented young chefs who cannot yet afford a freestanding brick and mortar location. At other times they are the food and entertainment centerpiece for larger mixed use developments. Images from Anaheim, St. Louis, Norwood, and Fort Wayne are excellent examples.

    The historic buildings that were repurposed and renovated to create these vibrant hubs run the gamut of prior lives – a stove factory, a hardware store, a dairy, an orange packing plant, and a maintenance garage to name a few. In two cases below (Asheville and Norwood), a former public cafeteria and an employee dining hall were each adapted into food halls.

    Each instance of a city “cooking with leftovers” to create/establish an iconic venue demonstrates how with ingenuity, a clever idea, and local backing/support, an unused or underutilized site can be transformed into a showplace of local pride and vitality. Each city below, and similar projects from elsewhere across the country, should be applauded for their exciting and successful efforts.

    Peace and kudos!

  4. Hoy he estado en el Jardín Botánico de Madrid.

    Os recomiendo visitarlo asiduamente. Es una maravilla cambiante cuatro veces al año.

    A pesar de la luz dura y la menos propicia incluso para los móviles con disparo automático, siempre encuentras un motivo bonito que rescatar para una foto.

  8. Globally Fresh and Spicy Names for Food Halls

    Listed below are fresh and spicy names for existing food halls from around the globe. Names with some commonality include those named for eating terms (bites, eat, and graze) or for gathering together (assembly, collective, mingle, and gatherall). Food halls that include shipping containers try to include that aspect in their name (box, kargo, stackt, and tin can). A term that surprised this blog author for not being included was “mess hall,” but perhaps the word mess was a concern.

    Favorites from the list (in terms of names) are noted with an asterisk *.

    Those shown in bold/italics the blog author has visited.

    Peace!
